Lenovo Unleashes New Windows 8 Touch Devices

Lenovo
(HKSE: 0992)(PINK SHEETS: LNVGY) today announced its new lineup of
consumer and business Windows
8 touch-optimized devices at the 2013
International Consumer Electronics Show. Headlining the collection
are new additions to the ultra-portable IdeaPad U Series Ultrabooks™ and
the multimedia intensive IdeaPad Z Series laptops as well as new models
of IdeaCentre all-in-one desktops, from the sleek and stylish A Series
to the affordable and space-saving C Series.

Lenovo also introduced an extreme performance gaming desktop PC, the
Lenovo Erazer X700, designed for enthusiast-level gaming and
graphics-hungry applications. For small businesses, the ThinkPad Edge
E431 and E531 laptops introduce a unique Lenovo OneLink technology for
new docking capabilities, and to complete the new range of Windows 8
touch devices, the ThinkPad Mobile Monitor makes a great companion as a
second display, especially for complementing non-touch devices with
touch functionality.

“People love touch. It’s everywhere in today’s PC Plus world and is
driving new interactions with devices and digital content,” said Peter
Hortensius, president, Product Group, and senior vice president, Lenovo.
“We’ve aggressively integrated touch across our consumer PCs so that we
have one of the largest portfolios of Windows 8 touch products
available.”

Premier Thin and Light IdeaPad U and Mainstream Z Series

Lenovo’s signature IdeaPad U310 and U410 mainstream Ultrabook™ devices
take thin and light to the next level with new 10-finger touch support.

in just one second with Instant Resume. They come with up to a 3rd gen
Intel® Core™ i7 processor, the latest NVIDIA GeForce® graphics with

intensive multimedia applications. The desktop comes with Lenovo’s
exclusive Onekey™ Overclocking feature that allows users to unleash

while simultaneously preventing the PC from overheating thanks to its
liquid cooling system. Many similar gaming PCs require users to adjust
the setting in the BIOS. Because the Erazer X700 leverages AMD Eyefinity
technology, users can connect up to six monitors to enjoy a panoramic
screen display and add up to 4 TB of storage without tools while the PC
is still running. The desktop also comes with 32GB of memory, dual
graphics support (NVIDIA® GeForce® or ATI CrossFireX™1, up to dual AMD
Radeon™ HD and the latest Intel Core family of processors.

display with 10-point multi-touch into an less-than-an-inch thin frame
with a widely adjustable screen angle from -5° to 90° so people can use
it comfortably in any position. The A730 supports up to Windows 8 Pro,
includes choices of the 3rd gen Intel Core family of
processors and features large storage options up to 1TB.

The Lenovo C540 AIO with an optional touch screen is one of the most
affordable and space saving 23- inch touch AIOs for family
entertainment. It bundles powerful technologies including a 3rd gen
Intel® Core™ i3 processor and NVIDIA GeForce discrete graphics for an
affordable computing solution.

ThinkPad Edge Laptops Pioneer OneLink Technology

The ThinkPad Edge E431 and E531 are the first ThinkPad laptops to
include Lenovo’s all new OneLink technology. Designed to offer
simplicity through a single cable connection, the new unique interface
eliminates cable clutter without compromising performance. The first
device to support the new technology is the new ThinkPad OneLink Dock.
Offering superior lag-free graphics and audio performance through native
video with dedicated HDMI and audio ports, it can also play host to a
number of accessories through four USB ports. This industry unique
technology will also charge laptop and mobile devices. Lenovo plans to
offer additional OneLink devices in 2013. In addition to touch
functionality, the slim ThinkPad Edge E431 and E531 laptops feature
improved graphics options for more vivid content on their displays up to
full HD and a five-button ClickPad lets users control Windows 8 features
from the keyboard.

The Wired/Wireless Mobile Touch Screen Companion

The slim and sleek ThinkVision LT1423p Mobile Monitor Touch is Lenovo's
next generation mobile monitor that offers extra screen real estate and
touch functionality for users who demand more productivity on-the-go.

thin design with a 13.3 inch 1600 x 900 AH-IPS panel protected by
Gorilla Glass for an incredibly wide viewing angle and offers a great
Windows 8 touch experience. Consumers can even experience touch control
gestures on non-touch PCs, and as an added benefit, business customers

commercial transactions by using the electro-magnetic stylus.

We call it DevOps but much of the time there’s a lot more discussion about the needs and concerns of developers than there is about other groups. There’s a focus on improved and less isolated developer workflows. There are many discussions around collaboration, continuous integration and delivery, issue tracking, source code control, code review, IDEs, and xPaaS – and all the tools that enable tho...

Poor data quality and analytics drive down business value. In fact, Gartner estimated that the average financial impact of poor data quality on organizations is $9.7 million per year. But bad data is much more than a cost center. By eroding trust in information, analytics and the business decisions based on these, it is a serious impediment to digital transformation.

As we end 2017, I’m tired of writing “lecturing” blogs about what organizations should be doing to master data monetization in order to power their business models and achieve digital transformation. While the objective of every organization should be to master big data and data science (artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning) to drive “data monetization,” let’s take a breath and...

Business professionals no longer wonder if they'll migrate to the cloud; it's now a matter of when.

And when the cloud is combined with the power of cognitive computing, it drives innovation and transformation th...

As IoT continues to increase momentum, so does the associated risk. Secure Device Lifecycle Management (DLM) is ranked as one of the most important technology areas of IoT. Driving this trend is the realization that secure support for IoT devices provides companies the ability to deliver high-quality, reliable, secure offerings faster, create new revenue streams, and reduce support costs, all whil...

Cloud computing budgets worldwide are reaching into the hundreds of billions of dollars, and no organization can survive long without some sort of cloud migration strategy. Each month brings new announcements, use cases, and success stories.
